I wanted to start off by saying that this is why Gossiping is a sin. Obviously the news I heard earlier about my favorite band and role model, made me a little confused. I think girls subconsciously get super worked up over these types of things and girls tend to take the girls side because we have this super knit gender bond that automatically triggers something against men in general. We don't mean it, I mean some of us might, but that's not the issue. And maybe this is a lesson I'm learning from the Lord. I shouldn't be posting things online about rumors I hear, even if it's supposedly coming from the source, because people aren't always truthful and people will say anything to draw attention to themselves. I mean, how else do you get people to listen to you, right? :/
So to help clear things up I have been doing research all day about this, because for some reason I just couldn't let it go. God likes to humble me in weird little ways, here I am all intense about this subject and I get shot down by it. :( Anyways, here's some sources I've come across today in my efforts...
Shannon wrote in her blog:
I’ll make this short (And as sweet as I can): For those of you who missed my announcement on the show a few days ago, I am no longer engaged. I called it off after learning a few things about Matt that I simply just could not handle. He’s a wonderful person with an amazingly huge heart, and I love him more than anything. But … No more wedding bells. I’m leaving it at that, and I hope you will, too. I need a lot of privacy, a lot of support and a lot of inspiration as I begin the “healing process.”
Matthew Thiessen did not cheat on Shannon Murphy. A close friend of Matt’s told him that God had someone better in store for him. He told Shannon and she couldn’t handle it and called it off. On her blog she posted “I called it off after learning a few things about Matt that I simply just could not handle.”
On “The Morning Mess” Shannon said “I don’t even believe in God” [0:55 – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8O54nG0y1Qk and as most of you know Matt Thiessen is the lead singer of a Christian band.. so what God thinks means a lot to him; but probably not so much to Shannon.
And Matt Theissen's interview helps...
Goodnight world, enough of this crazyness!!
